When i touch both pedals the computer overides and acceleration dies. Not saying i want to sit at the lights hooning, but if i were to one day feel like doing a stand still or launch it nicely i wouldnt be able to. Now i heard a maf tune would fix this problem but is there any other solution to this. Taking opinions...

Indeed TC off.... All LS Powered Commodores are desgined to have a 'Push Back' Feel in the accelerator pedel while TC is on, i would also come with a 'Low Traction' Warning in the dash with an alarm. Press TC button to fry them tyres!

Lmao u guys are pretty funny... but c'mon think outside the box, clearlyive tried the traction control off button and the power button, the vz's and all electronic powered pedal cars so '05 and up come with security system that denies both pedals being pressed at the same time, anyone on here that has an auto vz or ve will know. im gonna do the tune eventually but it aint cheap, wondering if in the mean time there was a work-around.

Yeah it's like an abuse protection mode? Only way I've heard to get rid of it is tune it out like you said. Maybe look up on ls1.com.au. I'm sure it would of been mentioned there
